Default Property Line Looks Like A Jungle (Frank)

Your right Frank, I don't want to fight with the neighbor by any means.
I like him and his wife and do them favors all the time which I'm glad I
can do. The only thing I don't like is the fact that they can see how
their bushes overgrow my property and it doesn't mean a thing to them.
If I had one single bush that was overgrowing their side, they would be
over at my house in a hurry and ask me to trim it. Their bushes also
overgrow my nice new concrete driveway and rub the sides of our
vehicles. My car doesn't even have 3,000 miles on it yet so you can see
where this doesn't make me real happy.

I think it is legal to prune anything on your side even if it ruins the
bush or the tree. I would certainly do this to protect my car. Don't
think neighbor can dispute this. This is also the perfect time of year
for pruning practically everything.
